Cabo sits at the tip of the Baja California peninsula. Big resort scene in San José del Cabo and the marina-side action of Cabo San Lucas, connected by a 20-mile “Tourist Corridor” of beaches and golf.
Why we love it
- Drier and less hurricane-prone than the Caribbean side
- Top-tier resort scene (Esperanza, One&Only, Waldorf Astoria)
- Whale watching Dec–Apr is a highlight
